Quantum Superposition

This standalone animation shows a qubit existing in a blend of two states at once: |0⟩ and |1⟩. The moving paths represent probability amplitudes before measurement. Press Measure to collapse the superposition into a single outcome.

What you’re seeing Before measurement, the qubit is not “partly here and partly there” in a classical sense. It is in a quantum state that combines both possibilities.

Measurement forces a single outcome. The chances are set by the amplitudes, shown here as the probability split between |0⟩ and |1⟩.
